We all know our health is valuable, but these days a job is also quite valuable. Jobs are necessary as they pay for our everyday living expenses such as food, clothing, shelter, utilities, transportation, and so on. We all have read how people are selling some of their prized possessions just to make ends meet. Being out of work is hazardous to your health. Chances are if you are not the one out of work, you know someone who is. Though I am no expert, I thought I would share some tips to help improve your chances of getting a job. Sorry but I do not have a magic wand to wave.
Do you have a myspace or any other type blog or message system online? Remove it quick, or make sure it does not have your real name attached to it and can't be traced back to you. Imagine a picture of you with your beau in the heat of passion and your potential boss seeing it, or having a picture on an online dating service. They do investigate these days. In other words, there could be something that turns them off, So get rid of it pronto. Also try to have an email that is a variatin of your name. Something like hotlover@hotspots will not help, try something more like jdoe@myserviceprovider instead.
Lets look at your cover letter. Is it general? Who is it addressed to? You want to address it to the person who is in charge of interviewing and hiring you, not whom it may concern. An example would be Dear Mr. John Doe. Also you want to tell John Doe why you would be perfect for the job. Tell them how you can meet their needs should they hire you. Keep the cover letter to 1 page. While you are at it do a little research of the company. Call the front desk if necessary to ask questions.
About your resume, look it over. Are there any typos? Even if the job you are applying for does not require perfect grammar skills, you want to make a good impression. Typos make you look lazy so have it looked over by someone besides yourself. Are the skills pertaining to the job you've applied for listed on your resume? This is very important so take the time. Also don't include extra stuff that does not pertain to the job description. They do not care if you won the spelling bee 5 years in a row in your teens. (Unless you are applying for a job as the spelling bee coach or something similar) This type of information is irrelevant and can make it appear you are boasting about yourself. So retype that resume, it could make the difference in getting an interview and your resume landing in the garbage can.
Interviews give everyone the jitters, so make sure you are properly prepared. Dress appropriately for your interview. Do not overdress, or underdress. Dress how you would if you were already hired. Except in the medical profession, do not wear your uniform or work shoes, or other professions where a uniform is required. What types of questions will they ask you? Think of your answers beforehand. Practice in front of a mirror if necessary. Remember you need to make good eye contact and smile. DO NOT BE LATE. Make sure you have ample time to get there, don't be too early either. Remember to take a breath mint and relax before your interview.
Let's not forget the thank you note. Make sure you remember the correct title of the interviewer, when addressing them in the thank you note. Keep it short sweet and simple. Thank you for giving me the opportunity for being a part of your growing company. Do not forget the secretary or receptionist, send them a thank you note as well for helping you. Who knows they may put in a good word for you so be nice.
I wish all those looking for a job GOOD LUCK! Hopefully these simple tips can help you in your search. Remember you may have to take a pay cut. Jobs are quite scarce these days. The important thing is to get your foot in the door.

There is a trend of advisors who have lost their day time jobs coming to KEEN creating chaos. They come around pretending to be everybody's best friend. When they have day jobs they are not around, but when they loose those day jobs they come here policing and causing trouble. It would be nice if they found a new hobby! These people have several private accounts and go around clicking on advisors who are paying their hard earned money to advertise in the featured listings. It was so bad for me that I had to stop featuring. Last week alone I had a mere $28 left after all their clicking to buy my family's groceries for the week. Many clicks came from the same computer in a short amount of time, and I find this malicious. It appears one person in particular has made several attempts to have me removed from KEEN. If I post any messages in the forums she cries wolf until all my post and comments are removed. Gee I hope these people get a job soon so they will leave me and others alone.
This is my calling. I was born to help others and I am not going to let a few negative people stop me from my life's calling.
